I am a complete newbie to model boats and am watching this thread with great interest. Absolutely cracking work Dan.
The reason I am sooooo interested in this one is that I served on the real HMS Campbeltown from the day she was built for 3 years and hold her very dear to my heart. F86 Fighting Fortress.
Where did you get the hull from Dan as I want to build one but not sure whether to build from absolute scratch, making a plug, or buy a hull and then fabricate the rest of the superstructure and detail myself.
If there is any info I can give you or photos, as i will have some close up shots of me stood in front of various bits of the ships equipment then please shout.

P.S. just a small detail, not sure if the red oxide colour you used for the water line is just a base coat, but on the old girl she had a white water line and then gloss black below it. (I should know, I was in the seamanship branch and had to keep bleeding painting her)
